I have strpped my 87 2.5td defender 90 & and im going to fit a 300 tdi engine gearbox & axles
but im having some issues getting the R380 with transfer box in & sitting nice,
The box is the longer bell housing with a ascroft transmissions adapter for the selector.
At first I tried fitting it onto the standard gearbox mounts on the chassis - no go
then we tried using the disco cross member & mounts - no go
I then gave up because I was tired & hungry
I have considered using the 2.5td mounts but just moving them slightly??
anybody done this before like to shed some light![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
